We are extremely satisfied and pleased with your restoration. The result gives new life to an ailing picture, or perhaps we should say returns it to what it once was. Mr. Sordoni is looking forward to rehanging the revived painting in his collection. We have found your work to be exemplary. We appreciated the detailed analysis you provided prior to recommending a course of action. Stabilizing the canvas by relining and adding a new stretcher has solved the instability of the support and provides a solid base. The decision to remove a previous restorer’s overpainting of the background has eliminated a discordant feature that was never part of the artist’s original intent. In sum your work has been splendid.
